I was very impressed with the direction this movie took - not the typical "Batman" genre yet not so far that it looses the Batman theme. The appointed actors and their roles were perfectly matched. The movie stayed with the most noted Batman idiocyncricies, yet added a bit more "humaness" to Batman, without adding too much unbelievability. Interesting script with many thought provoking conversations. A long movie, yet it kept you wanting more. Not a person who likes to see movies twice, this one I definitely would.
